Atomic Endgame Studies

I have some Atomic end game studies here for ICC's version of Atomic chess, I hope you learn and get some use out of these positions.

White Material Black Material Can Force Win Difficluty
Knight x 3 King Yes 5
Queen + trapped pawn King Yes 4
Queen x 2 King Yes 3
Queen x 1 King No None
Queen x 3 King Yes 2
Bishop x 3 King Yes 6
Knight x 2 King No None
Bishop x 2 King Yes 7
Rook King Yes 7
Bishop + Knight and trapped pawn King No None

 

Basically a endgame can be won if there are at least two pieces on the board besides N + N or B + N or all light or dark squared bishops with the no trapped pawn. Or the game is won if there is two trapped pawns and a piece, As long as that piece is able to capture one of the pawns it is a win e.g If I have a dark squared bishop and both of my opponents pawns are on light squares I can't win. But If I had a light squared bishop I could easily win by using my light squared bishop to capture one of his light squared pawns and then promoting my free pawn into a queen and winning the game (To see how to win that position click here).
